Reading this and having heard how much gets "remade" with each restoration wouldnm't it be more accurate to say that what they have done is what will be being done to every warbird over the next 30 years, namely remaking them from new material. Eventually the last piece of the original machine will be replaced. Does that make it a replica or homebuild at that point?

Sorry, just putting a different spin on it and as I see it.
